between the mbx5r and the mbx5 prospec. Are they the same thing like truggy, theres the mbx5t then the prospec? Im guessing the prospec is better?

Good Guess


whats the difference? - motoxer4life - 08-26-2007

Actually, i was just looking, and the mbx5r costs more tho...

5r is new, 5 prospec is old.


whats the difference? - Ponch - 08-26-2007

Yeah if they were the same thing, my life would have been so much easier when I went to pick one up..Hundreds of mbx5 prospecs out there, and like 5 5R's out there f/s.

ahh i c. Thanks guys, im thinking about maybe getting a buggy after christmas cause ill have my job then and be able to afford two classes.

My Prospec will be for sale by then Smile


whats the difference? - motoxer4life - 08-26-2007

Well im thinkin about new probably, just because i know how easily stuff wears out and everything, like i was cleaning the truggy today and already the clutch bearings are screwed, and stuff like that. But if i cant afford new, ill keep you in mind.


whats the difference? - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 08-26-2007

u cant afford 1$ clutch bearings???


whats the difference? - motoxer4life - 08-26-2007

Yes i can. That was an example. If you want me to list out everything that can be used or worn i will but id still prefer new.


whats the difference? - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 08-26-2007

how in the hell can u wear out a truck in a month


whats the difference? - J-Dub - 08-26-2007

yeah for real....


whats the difference? - motoxer4life - 08-26-2007

Ok you want me to list i guess,

clutch bearings, a pin popped out of the cvd and cut a line in the arm, and the turnbuckle thing, so its getting ready to crack. Tires worn and coming unglued, the steering post bearings got pretty dirty and i tried to clean them but theyre kinda sticky still. Body getting cracked. Ill think of more if you want.


whats the difference? - motoxer4life - 08-26-2007

But either way, ill much rather get new so i know exactly how it was built and so i know how to rebuild it and what not.


whats the difference? - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 08-26-2007

Cool wow thats what you call alot getting worn out??? man you do have alot to learn, a set of tires?!?! wtf do u expect all i can say is wow. when u start going through a list of parts like that in a race day then u can bitch


whats the difference? - motoxer4life - 08-26-2007

How many times do you think i raced in a month? I raced the bash and 1 club race. 2 races total, and maybe 4 practice nights on the whole thing. Thats not much driving.


whats the difference? - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 08-26-2007

thats like a gallon of fuel, and it still runs no problem ur on crack


whats the difference? - motoxer4life - 08-26-2007

2 and a half gallons. I know it runs great but id want new before used. Thats what i prefer, If you dont then buy used.


whats the difference? - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 08-26-2007

man kid u give me a headache


whats the difference? - J-Dub - 08-26-2007

Lol...

I know what he means about buying used though. I got a couple used things and there was stuff rigged that I havn't corrected yet.
